Our SponsorsThese great corporate citizens have answered our call for help. We encourage you to patronize them whenever you can! General Ecology, Inc. donated a First Need® Deluxe Portable Water Purifier. The First Need Deluxe purifier is perfect for our 9-day journey. Besides producing great tasting water, First Need is the first and only water system of this type that has been independently certified to meet USEPA standards for Microbiological Purification without the use of chemical pesticides, double processing or hold time. Clif Bar, Inc., is a California-based company that makes what Mark says are the "best tasting bars out there." Clif Bar has generously donated both products and coupons toward products. Repel Insect Protection has donated a supply of their Lemon Eucalyptus Insect Repellent for our trip. Repel's Lemon Eucalyptus s an effective, naturally-derived alternative to traditional insect repellents. This fact, along with an increased need for protection against tick and mosquito-borne diseases, makes Repel Lemon Eucalyptus a great choice for your outdoor adventure. Whether it's a day in the woods or your back yard, Repel Lemon Eucalyptus provides effective insect protection for the entire family. ULA-Equipment will be supplying us with a demonstration model of their very lightweight (1 pound, 12 ounces!) T-3 Tent. We will return it to them after the hike, with feedback, which is cool with us! Thorlo will be supplying us with Lightweight Coolmax hiking socks.
